About John Foster

A highly driven marketing and advertising professional with strong organizational skills, dynamic leadership capabilities, and proven experience in a variety of marketing channels. Passionate about events and delivering unique experiences with a focus on building client relationships and driving success metrics. I have been in the media industry for over 8 years, working with a wide variety of clients from pharmaceuticals to entertainment. As a marketing specialist, I am often the main point of contact for our external and internal clients. Over the years, working in general market, experiential, and trade show media has provided me the opportunity to work with a wide range of agencies, advertisers, markets, and media. I work with my teams to brainstorm strategic and innovative marketing plans that will best fit the client needs, target their demographic and most importantly optimize their investment. My days are filled with exploring markets, from the U.S. to Canadian provinces and Europe as well as compiling research on target audiences in small towns and large cities. In building concise proposals with strategically placed media options, I\'ve helped to guide our clients, advertisers, and event organizations in order to select the most ideal placements.
